Morning flag break. I took way too much risk on this for the amount I made on it. I started out with 1k shares and a stop under $7.00 ($400 risk). Once it began to confirm itself I doubled up but didn't really have a good place to tighten my stop to so the risk went through the roof. I then added again when it finally broke out and sold way too soon. It was a big profit gainer but risk-wise this was a terrible trade and I was pretty much just tilting because I was down and wanted to come back with a home run. I should have been grinding my way back to a daily gain instead of taking too much risk to try to do it all with one trade. Given the amount of risk I took on this, I should have been taking at least a $1500-2k gain.
